Ask Jungle
"Jungle" Jim Bonaminio is the owner, fearless leader and creative spark plug behind the tri-state’s largest and most unique grocery store - Jungle Jim's International Market. This highly self-motivated, notoriously creative entrepreneur built his market from a tiny roadside produce stand in 1971 into the six-plus-acre Food Lover’s Paradise it is today. This Fairfield, Ohio landmark is as popular a supermarket as it is a tourist attraction and stands as testament to Bonaminio's commitment to "making grocery shopping fun."

The Lorain, Ohio native, who was a Miami University (Oxford) business major, is as serious about the food business as he is about the fun. Bonaminio’s flamboyant management style is tempered by his uncanny common sense approach to problem solving and open door policy towards his management team and staff. This marketing maverick sports a healthy disregard for the status-quo and applies his personal brand of ‘gorilla’ tactics to every aspect of his boomingly successful business.
